The Road Home Songtext
von Bill Miller

There′s a hitchhiker standing on the side
Of the road off of exit 104
And a forgotten billboard for all night diner
That ain't even there no more

Three deserted farms just like monuments
Standing cold and still
While a hawk and a lonely state trooper
Stand guard out on lookout hill

I′m just following the road home on a trail of memories
Just a battle weary native son is there still a home for me
When you see me coming don't you turn away
'Cause this hometown boy needs a place to stay
And a little understanding on the road home
On the road home


There′s still mud on my boots from across the sea
And I ain′t gonna kick it off
'Cause it makes me remember what I need to forget
When I′m feeling lonesome and lost

And there's a river of scars and it′s running deep
Right down to my very soul
And this battle rages every step of the way
While I try not to let it show

I'm just following the road home on a trail of memories
Just a battle weary native son is there still a home for me
When you see me coming don′t you turn away
'Cause this hometown boy needs a place to stay
And a little understanding on the road home
On the road home

When you see me coming don't you turn away
′Cause this hometown boy needs a place to stay
And a little understanding on the road home
On the road home

I′m on the road home
